CYA legal issues are why the car will continue to go until turned off or out of gas.

One of the first things I did was go through the Forscan options and disable the warning honk and enable secure idle, that way you can't take the car out of park unless the key is in the car. There is zero need for that to ever be enabled in my opinion.

Anyone know what happens if you drive your car away without the keys? Cause, ya know, push starters. I would imagine it would keep running until you either ran outta gas or turned it off again. I don’t think it would just shut down while you were driving. Anyone test this out?

And no I didn’t drive away without my keys.
Simplest solution is to move the key further away. My fob is on the inside garage wall in the kitchen about 8'-10' away from my '18 GT and the car will not sense it, so no start. I believe the sense range is only 3-5'.
